PEEK Resin
PEEK Resin Characteristics & Uses
PEEK resin (Polyetheretherketone) is ideal for components where thermal, chemical and combustion properties are critical for performance. Carbon filled PEEK is reinforced with carbon fiber and increases mechanical strength and performance. Check out our Peek Resin Material Data Sheet to learn more about its properties and applications.
